Basically the Treaty of Versailles stated that Germany had to take full responsibility for the outbreak of World War I. In the Treaty, Germany was forced to pay $33 billion in reparations to the countries affected by the war. Germany was also required to give up most of its colonies that it had control over prior to WWI. So, I suppose these events would make Germany very sad...

the treaty of Versailles was to much burden on Germany and there was no way they began to pay retribution that was imposed on them. it caused much hardship and hard feelings and Germany began to think the world was against them. so Germany when Hitler started ruling ignored the treaty and began to prepare for war.
The treaty is called the Versailles Treaty.It was signed on June 28, 1919it is considered as the peace settlement between Germany and the Allied Powers that officially ended World War I.However, the conditions in the treaty were so punitive upon Germany that many believe the Versailles Treaty laid the groundwork for the eventual rise of Nazis in Germany and the start of World War II.
WW1 was ended with the Treaty of Versailles which blamed the war on Germany. Germany was so mad about this that, for their new dictator, they looked to Hitler for guidance This led up to WW2, in a way.
Sort of. The Treaty of Versailles was drawn up after WW1. It divided up territory, and placed a number of sanctions on Germany. The Germans suffered under the Treaty. There was hyper inflation, poverty, unstable government. Check out the Weimar Republic. It was this suffering which caused Hitler to rise to power, as he wanted to see Germany restored to its former glory. From that, you had Germany invade Poland. Which was territory lost under the Treaty, and so on and so forth.
They blamed Germany, since they started the war. They hated the French . . . the war was largely started to get back at the French for whipping the Germans in the War of 1870. Germany really got hammered by the terms of the Treaty. If it hadn't been for the US insisting on the Treaty not being so harsh as France and Britain wanted it, most of Germany's population would have starved to death. Even so, Germany suffered greatly. Because of the resulting hard feelings by the German people, Adolph Hitler was able to goad the Germans into a second war: World War Two.
